Does location change the cost in Orlando?
Less than most people expect. The parts that make up most of a batting cage — frame kits, netting, turf, pitching machines, and lighting — ship at roughly national prices, so they cost about the same wherever you build. What actually varies is local labor and concrete: hiring an installer, pouring footings, and grading the site. In the Orlando area those run 10% below the national average, which is already baked into the numbers above.
